Abstract

Evidence is presented for a two-step process in ion-atom collisions in which two independent interactions occur in a single encounter. Measurements for 15200-MeVS13++He collisions indicate that uncorrelated projectile K-shell excitation and capture of a target electron occur in a single collision with one target atom. The results are in reasonable qualitative agreement with theoretical predictions of this two-step process. © 1985 The American Physical Society.
